Fuel Shortage to Get Worse Shortly PORTLAND, July 10 (UP) Fuel shortage in the northwest is going to get worse before it gets better. Rail congestion will bo an added factor. So indicated James Miksack of the national OPA solid fuel of fice, in Seattle, here in Portland for conference with George Cur ry, district fuel section head. Officials asked those buying coal, wood or sawdust despite hot weather to continue as long as supplies last. They were also asked to make fuels on hand go 20 percent further. Those who huve not obtained 50 percent of their sawdust sup ply by August must consider conversion to coal. Much wood has ' been lost through major mill shutdowns, Miksack pointed out. Portland he said, uses 21 percent of the north west's supply of domestic wood fuel. The overall picture o coal, now easier to get than wood, would be helped if consumers would buy more of the cheaper grades. Case Assured Tide Land Titles Quiet OLYMPIA, July 10 (UP) Otto A.
